Is it possible to use Full Backup mode in case of BD3D source (including menus and extras) without reencoding the video (keeping intact)? I just want to throw out unwanted audio streams, reencode the English HD track to AC3 5.1 while keeping an other AC3 5.1 track of the main movie.

There's no problem, I think.
You only have to use the right settings for 3D encoding. Shrinking to BD25 works fine for me. A simple selection of of your fav. audio can 't be a problem in my opinion.

Will BD-RB have an option for chosing DGDecNV as the frameserver for UHD-BD encodings? I have a Pascal Card and latest DGDecNV now supports decoding of HEVC upto 12-bit without any issue. I have tested it and is working flawlessly.

Thanks for this amazing software.

Right now I dont have a card that supports it, so I have no way of testing it... so probably not for a while.

Giving thanks to any answer.

I should be no problem. From that perspective BD-RB treats 3D like any other source.

I am still thinking about shrinking the video of my 3DBD-s as well, I just do not have so much experience with FrimEncode. AFAIK FrimEncode doesn't have something like CRF mode. For my encodes, I always use fix "transparent" crf values like 18 for main movie and 20 for the extras and I generally am totally "satisfied with my care".

Does anyone here have experience with FrimEncode? My aim to achieve some "visual transparency" while keeping the original menus with extras and throwing out unwanted tracks.
Thanks again for any opinion shared.

I did a lot of 3D movies using Frim. Itīs quiet slow, but it works. On my system itīs about 16fps. A normal 2D Encode is about 10x faster... The results are fine on my beamer with a 120" screen.
i canīt say if it would be ok for you with my settings. I never had faulty encodes stay over 55% of the original size.
Make a test and watch the result.

Thanks. Do you use software decoding/encoding in BD-RB, right? Quality settings is set to default, right?

It seems to be quite difficult to determine a sufficient average bitrate for the VBR encodes because complexity of the source changes from one to an other. ~45% of bitrate saving sounds quite impressive, anyway. On top of it all, I would like to check the result on my small LG C6V 4K HDR (3D TV), so....

jdobbs, the past couple weeks i've done a full system format (to fix an issue with the windows indexing service among other things) and to move from my Samsung 850 EVO to my Samsung 960 Pro. Naturally i'm using BDRB again and i've decided to go with LAV filters only. Now the instructions don't say if anything needs to be configured in the audio or video splitter. Do they, or are they just fine simply after installing? For the video splitter is it ok to enable nvidia cuvid/quicksync? When doing 3D should i set it to quicksync?

Absolutly right: software decoding/encoding and quality settings to default. My last 3D projects were Star Wars VIII and Jumanji.
Even the dark scenes looked good and 3D was very impressive.
Finaly youīll have to test it for your own, if this would fit for you.

LAV Filters should work fine with the defaults. The other settings (cuvid etc.) depend on your specific configuration. What they will do for you in most cases is increase speed. On my system I just tried them and selected the ones that worked best. You don’t need to change anything when doing 3D.

Sorry, I'm still not sure I follow the status of BD-RB and UHD.. It doesn't support it, right? (not even for UHD -> Movie only MKV)..

Did you ever decide if you'll work on it? or will it be included or BD-RB or will it be a separate program?

Not necessarily a bug, but not a feature either.. more of a question..

Usually I rip BD's to HD, then setup a batch of multiple movies (Alt Movie only to MKV) and walk away..

Today I ran into a disc that gave me read errors trying to rip to HD... For gins and smiles, I decided to set the sources in BD-Rebuild as the bluray drive, and proceeded to do the Alt Movie Only... If there were read errors from the disc, would BD-RB have given an error message during the process?

Since it completed without error, is it possible the movie only MKV is actually fine? (I hope to get to watch it later today or tomorrow)

Not a 100% sure but think that error means bdrb doesn't have enough free space to work with. You need a lot more than your 32gb to do a full disclosure backup. But can't be sure since you left out half the log.

Hi all.
For the first time, I'm experiencing a target size problem with BD Rebuilder v0.50.25.
From "inspect", everything seems to be correct (gonna paste the log).
The BD I'm trying to shrink is multi-angle and multi-playlist: the resulting shrink is 26.4 GB.
It's a full backup, BD size output setting is BD-25, quality "automatic" and "Quicker encode for extras" is enabled (if disabled, the resulting folder is even bigger).
Languages selected are eng and ita only, audio is converted from dts to ac3.
x264 internal LAVF is used for frame serving.
No "Hidden" option is used.
The system is not overclocked.
Here's the conversion log(s):CONAN_THE_BARBARIAN.INF.TXT

Not a 100% sure but think that error means bdrb doesn't have enough free space to work with. You need a lot more than your 32gb to do a full disclosure backup. But can't be sure since you left out half the log.

I don't get any log as it doesn't open the discs.. Have tried other temp drives with alot more space so it isn't that.

Edit reason: Scratch that. Seems to be a corrupt source. Sorry for taking up your time.

Hi Together....since BD-Rebuilder has not been updated....maybe because of a lack of need
x264/x265 encoder had further progress. Is there any info available which versions to pick from "http://msystem.waw.pl/x265/" for example ?
